Is it really true that there is no way to set a breakpoint on a running
program?  For example, if I discover that I need another breakpoint while
the program is running how do I interrupt IPMD to set this breakpoint.
Some folks here say that this is just not possible.  If so, I view this
as a major failing of IPMD.  The same problem seems to exist for even
enabling a breakpoint previously disabled.  This seems so easy to
implement and so essential to use, how did the IPMD developers forget
it?

I've also noticed that sometimes the "step over" and "step return" 
functions seem broken; they have the effect of "run".  Other folks here
have also noticed this behavior.  Are there any bug fixes for this 
problem?

I'm sorry if this has all been hashed to death in this newsgroup,
but I'm just now subscribing to it.
